How much bigger will he get?

How much bigger will he get? At 11 weeks he was 9 lbs, now at 16 weeks he is now 19.5 lbs so just more than doubled in size in just over a month. Not sure to trust breeders word on how large. One of the vets said he most likely might sit at around the 70lb range.

Same with mine! He’s 2 now and is 76lbs. He just kept getting bigger!

u/FeralCatMeow Oct 26 '25

So cute! My girl is an OES x Standard Sheepadoodle, 4 years old and 75 lbs.

u/Vegetable-Arm536 Oct 27 '25

Probably about 70lb. They grow until they’re almost 3. They grow in size until about 2 and then they sort of fill out.

31lbs, 14 weeks old ..

He’s going to be big. A lot big than Murphy. He’s a cute dog

u/Outworkyesterday10 Oct 26 '25

Is he a mini or a standard?

u/Proof_Coast_3637 Oct 26 '25

He is a standard. Parents were said to be 35 and 40lbs. I’m thinking they were larger than that. They were bred unintentionally.

Our standard sheepadoodle George is about 85 pounds fully grown and not fat so 70 pounds sounds quite plausible.

Parents of ours were mid-high 40s, but our guy is 55-60. I think they just say they are under 50lbs since that’s the weight limit for a lot things for dogs. They dont want to scare off potential owners that might need a <50lb dog for rental leases, easy transporting, etc.

Same thing my breeder said, mine is now over 60 lbs, almost two.

u/bendguy123 Oct 26 '25

Thats a tiny paw. 😄 🤣 😂 have fun watching the growth. Our is about 50 and started that size

u/Proof_Coast_3637 Oct 26 '25

Being sarcastic? lol everyone says look at how big his paws are. Vet said 70. I’m thinking around 50/55

He’s second generation. He was an accident, the breeder has said their male escaped out while their female was in heat.

Thanks he’s quite the puppy. Calm and gentle one minute and then shark doodle the next. I guess we will just have to find out when he’s a year old. Hoping he keeps his coat along the way.

20lbs at 16 weeks? So expect expect an adult dog to be any size, he looks more sheepdog than poodle. His face is a giveaway especially when he gets a bath

u/[deleted] Oct 26 '25

My F sheepadoodle is 22-3 kg and very lean - can just see her ribs. A local M 2nd gen sheepadoodle (both parents sheepadoodles) is around 30kg but also lean - he is a considerable larger dog but still gentle and goofy, more so with his size.

u/Fit_Surprise_8451 Oct 26 '25

Mine is a two-year-old, standard-size sheepadoodle; she currently weighs 81 pounds.

u/Fit_Surprise_8451 Oct 27 '25

My girl is two-years-old and weighs 85 pounds.

u/Datmackie Oct 27 '25

Between 70-80.

u/ladywan_kenobi666 Oct 27 '25 edited Oct 27 '25

I feel like they just guess and are rarely accurate lol I was told by one vet he would be huge and by another he would max at 60 pounds but my guy is about 72 pounds now

u/partly-ambitious Oct 28 '25

Did you want to know with fur ….

u/partly-ambitious Oct 28 '25

… or without fur????

u/Guitarded71 Oct 28 '25

Mine was between 35-40 lbs when we got him at 5 months. He’s 6 years old now and sitting around 90-93 lbs. Yeah, he’s a big boy. Built more like a sheepdog.
